Nanhai City.
Ye Xuan finished his last day of food delivery work, counting the wages in his hand with a smile, which amounted to six thousand yuan.
If the cultivators of the Immortal Martial World knew that the young master of the Divine Doctor Sect, who was proficient in both medicine and martial arts, was delivering food in the mortal world and was smiling foolishly at the money they considered as dirt, they would probably be shocked to drop their jaws.
However, Ye Xuan was very happy. He finally understood why his master sealed all his abilities three years ago and threw him into this unfamiliar city.
After three years of worldly trials, having seen the warmth and coldness of human relationships, his frivolous heart had finally settled. He could feel that after his mental state changed, it would be easier for him to break through to higher realms in the future.
Today was a very important day, not only because it was Zhang Miaomiao's birthday, but also because it was the day Ye Xuan's seal would be broken. He had prepared for a year to give Zhang Miaomiao a surprise on this important day.
Thinking of this, a happy smile appeared on Ye Xuan's face. Zhang Miaomiao was the woman he intended to protect for life, even though she was somewhat materialistic and vain.
But, he, Ye Xuan, didn't care!
Because Zhang Miaomiao was his savior, Ye Xuan could tolerate all her flaws. He was willing to do anything to repay her for saving his life.
In the shabby rental apartment,
Ye Xuan sat on the sofa, holding a Hermes gift bag, which he had bought for Zhang Miaomiao with all his money.
"Today is Miaomiao's birthday."
"She will be very happy when she sees this bag."
"After today, I will have the ability to give her a comfortable life."
At this moment, Ye Xuan was full of hope for the future. He wouldn't have to worry about making money anymore, and he could spend more time with Miaomiao, allowing her to live a decent life.
However,
Ye Xuan waited until after eleven o'clock at night, but still didn't see Miaomiao come back. He fiddled with the designer bag in his hand, feeling a bit uneasy.
"Why hasn't Miaomiao come back yet?"
"Yesterday, she said she would stay at home for her birthday. Did something happen?"
Ye Xuan was restless in the rental apartment, glancing at the wall clock every minute. Each second felt like an eternity.
At this moment, the doorbell suddenly rang.
"Miaomiao is back!"
Ye Xuan quickly put down the bag and ran to the door to give her a surprise.
However, the moment the door opened,
Ye Xuan's smile froze. The person standing outside was not Zhang Miaomiao, but a strong, square-faced young man, about the same age as Ye Xuan, wearing a blue robe, with a neatly trimmed beard and a faintly sad look in his eyes.
"Senior Brother!" the young man called respectfully.
Ye Xuan glanced behind him, a hint of disappointment flashing across his face. He looked at the young man with confusion and asked, "Ji Tong? Why are you here at this time?"
Ji Tong was his junior brother from the Divine Doctor Sect, with whom he had grown up. They had a close relationship. After Ye Xuan was sent out for training, Ji Tong often sneaked out to visit him. Each time he returned to the sect, he would be confined by their master, but as soon as the time was up, he would find an opportunity to come down the mountain to see Ye Xuan.
"Senior Brother, today is the day your seal will be broken. I came to give you the unsealing pill."
Saying this, Ji Tong took out a red wooden box from his sleeve and solemnly handed it to Ye Xuan.
"Unsealing? Isn't it tomorrow?"
Ye Xuan was slightly stunned by this. He looked back at the wall clock and realized that it was already past midnight.
Zhang Miaomiao still hadn't come home, and Ye Xuan felt a bit disappointed.
Ye Xuan led Ji Tong into the room, suppressing his chaotic thoughts, sat cross-legged on the ground, took a few deep breaths, and then swallowed the unsealing pill.
"Boom!"
The moment the unsealing pill entered his mouth, it instantly transformed into a pure energy stream that flowed through his meridians. Guided by Ye Xuan, it attacked the seals within his body, breaking through all eighty-one of them.
When the last seal was broken, a massive energy wave erupted from Ye Xuan's body, forcing Ji Tong to step back several times.
"Breakthrough?"
Ji Tong stared at Ye Xuan in shock, "A Martial Arts Grandmaster at twenty years old. This news will shock the entire martial arts world."
This was a miracle in the martial arts world.
It was an unprecedented existence in the thousand-year history of the martial arts world.
Ye Xuan stood up, gradually reining in his released aura, feeling the pure spiritual energy and surging power within his body, and nodded in satisfaction.
Ye Xuan looked at Ji Tong, "Junior Brother, did Master have any instructions for me? If not, you can go back. I need to find Miaomiao and celebrate her birthday."
"Senior Brother, Master has passed away." Ji Tong lowered his eyelids, a trace of sorrow in his eyes.
"What?"
Ye Xuan's smile instantly froze, and he shouted in shock, "Impossible!"
"Master has surpassed the peak of Martial King and entered the legendary realm. He has an infinite lifespan. Even if all humans on Earth were to die, he wouldn't pass away. Don't lie to me!"
Ji Tong looked at Ye Xuan's appearance and said painfully, "I'm telling the truth. All the disciples left to guard the sect were killed. When I saw Master, he was already on the brink of death."
Hearing this, Ye Xuan's body swayed, and he barely managed to stand steady by holding onto a chair. His eyes were filled with pain, "How could this happen? Master hasn't seen me reach the peak of martial arts. How could he pass away? What exactly happened?"
"Senior Brother, before Master passed away, he asked you to inherit the Divine Doctor Sect and become the sect leader."
Saying this, Ji Tong took off a black ring from his neck and handed it to Ye Xuan.
"Is this the sect leader's storage ring?"
Ye Xuan took the ring with a sorrowful expression.
"Master said to make the sect flourish. The storage ring contains the sect's century-old secrets and sealed information about the enemy. You can only view the information and seek revenge after breaking through to the Martial King realm," Ji Tong said solemnly.
"I understand."
Ye Xuan gently stroked the ring on his finger, his expression slightly somber.
At this moment, Ye Xuan seemed like a different person. He was no longer the carefree young master. From this moment on, he carried the blood feud of his master and the fate of the entire sect on his shoulders!
Ye Xuan's gaze gradually turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, "Junior Brother Ji Tong, for the time being, gather all the scattered disciples in Nanhai City. We need to rebuild the sect."
Ji Tong replied, "I have already started contacting them. We have reached out to about seventy disciples from the three halls. Over thirty are from the Shadow Hall responsible for intelligence, over thirty are from the Martial Hall at the Qi Condensation stage, and about ten are from the Alchemy Hall."
Ye Xuan nodded. Although the Divine Doctor Sect had been destroyed, as the once strongest cultivation sect, the remaining forces were still comparable to a small cultivation sect.
"Junior Brother Ji Tong, from today on, you will be the Left Envoy of the Divine Doctor Sect, with the authority to mobilize all sect resources. We need to rebuild the Divine Doctor Sect and avenge Master and the deceased disciples!"
Ye Xuan took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a cold light.
"Alright!" Ji Tong nodded heavily and then turned to leave the rental apartment. Many returning sect disciples were waiting for him to settle them, and he couldn't stay any longer.
Ye Xuan stood by the window, gazing at the dark night outside. His eyes flashed with a cold light, and he took out his phone to call Zhang Miaomiao.
However, the call was always unable to connect.
Ye Xuan dialed Ji Tong's number again, "Junior Brother Ji Tong, have the brothers from the Shadow Hall find Zhang Miaomiao's location for me."
"Yes, Senior Brother."
After hanging up, Ye Xuan left the rental apartment.
Wangyou Pavilion.
It was a famous luxury venue in Nanhai City, frequented by wealthy businessmen and rich second-generation heirs.
At this moment, in a luxurious private room, Zhang Miaomiao, wearing a sexy evening gown, with her long, black, lustrous hair, stood out in the room. She sat on the sofa, her eyes fixed on the men in the dance floor, as if selecting prey.
Today, Zhang Miaomiao was originally shopping with her friend Liu Qian. By chance, she heard from Liu Qian that there was a high-profile gathering tonight, so she changed her clothes and came here with Liu Qian.
As for the birthday celebration she had promised Ye Xuan, it had long been forgotten.
The opportunity to interact with rich second-generation heirs was what Zhang Miaomiao had always dreamed of. How could she give up this chance for a birthday celebration, especially with a poor guy?
She had heard from Liu Qian that the men at this party were all influential and wealthy. If she could establish a relationship with any of them, she could transform from a chicken to a phoenix.
